After squinting for a while, Chen Kai opened his eyes and saw this scene. Chen Kai had been tensed up all day, and his nerves, which had only slowed down for a while, became tense again. Fortunately, this time he may have had enough rest, and he was more relaxed.

When I actually met people, I came from a business background and still had confidence in dealing with people. On the contrary, I was much calmer than before.

His eyes widened in horror, but Chen Kai's mind was running rapidly. The room was still the same room as before. Looking between the two of them, the door was open, but the sky was already dark. If it hadn't been for the short man holding it in one hand,

If the bamboo stick, which is about the thickness of a thumb and slightly longer than the middle finger, is glowing slightly with flames, none of the three of them can see each other clearly.

However, what surprised him was that the tall man spoke in a dialect that sounded a bit like someone from the Chaoshan area. More importantly, their clothes were not hooded or double-breasted, and they did not look modern at all.

On the contrary, their clothes are more like short Hanfu, and their hair is tied up like that of the ancient Han people, and the whole person looks weird.

"What the hell is going on?"

Chen Kai had asked himself this question countless times today. However, this time he absolutely did not dare to say it. There was no way, the two steel pointing forks were pointing at his chest, even if there was still a collar

With the coir raincoat blocking the way between them, he would never dare to make any fuss about it.

After thinking about the customers with Hokkien accents he had met before, and roughly identifying what they were talking about, Chen Kai slowly stretched out his hands from the coir raincoat, spread his fingers, and made a gesture to the two of them.

With a harmless gesture of raising his hand, he slowly said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just a passerby. It's too late and I can't find an express hotel. I'll rest here for a while. Since this is for two people, I can leave immediately.

.”

Chen Kai can vaguely understand Hokkien, but asking him to speak it is a bit difficult. In this case, Mandarin comes in handy. He believes that with the Republic's ability to popularize, no matter how weird these people are, they can still understand it.

It's in Mandarin.

As soon as Chen Kai finished speaking, the two looked at each other strangely, and then the short man holding a fire in one hand said to the tall man: "Brother, what he said seems to be Mandarin."

Mandarin?

Before Chen Kai's doubts emerged, the tall man categorically denied it and shouted with more stern emphasis: "What this guy is talking about is not the official dialect, but the dialect of the northerners. The Yankees who surrendered the Tatars last year

When I was passing through the town, I vaguely heard from a distance that they sounded like this!"

The tall man shouted low, and the short man had an angry look on his face. The steel fork he held in his hand came straight closer to Chen Kai, and he pressed it directly on the coir raincoat, as if he was going to kill Chen Kai.

Kai pokes a pair of clothes.

The amount of information in the conversation between the two was a bit large, and the Hokkien language was not easy to understand. This was the case before Chen Kai could analyze the reason.

Fortunately, the short man did not continue to poke. Instead, after talking to his brother, the tall man turned his attention to Chen Kai. Only this time, he no longer spoke in Chaoshan dialect, but in Chaoshan dialect.

It sounds a bit like Tianjin dialect, but also mixed with a lot of Chaoshan dialect. It sounds like this person is probably the same.

The Tianjin dialect is divided into different parts, and the urban one is closer to the Huaisi accent. Although this hodgepodge is not much better, at least it is easier than the pure Chaoshan dialect. Chen Kai has to go through a round of translation process before analyzing and answering.

Some, and soon he figured out what this person wanted to ask.

"As I said just now, I was just a passerby who got lost in the mountains. When I saw no one in the house, I thought it was an abandoned house, so I stayed there for the night. Since it is your residence, I can leave immediately."

Repeating the answer just now, Chen Kai's mind was filled with words such as "mandarin", "northern dialect" and "the Yankees who surrendered the Tartars". What exactly did they mean? The more he thought about it, the more he understood.

He felt so cold that his subsequent answers inevitably slowed down a lot.

"I ask you again, what happened in Niujia Village, what did you see?"

There was another stern question, and the impatience revealed in the tone of the questioner did not need any translation. But before Chen Kai could think of his words, the short brother said, "Speak! Are the people from Niujiacun?

"You killed me?" he shouted, and two lines of hot tears burst out from his eyes.

Having already asked this question, Chen Kai sighed and took off the raincoat covering his body at an unimaginably slow speed. The two of them started to see Chen Kai move, and were quite nervous, but when they waited for the answer

After the revelation, the two of them were left stunned.

"Tell me, how could I, dressed like a primitive man, kill dozens of people in the village?"

………………

It doesn't matter whether you understand the meaning of primitive people or not. As long as you see Chen Kai's attire, you will naturally understand. After a while, the lighting fork was erected by the wall. The short man lit a bonfire and kept adding firewood to it. High

The taller one went out to scoop a ladle of water, poured the coarse rice and water into a bamboo tube, sealed it with leaves, and placed it in the fire pit.

As soon as the primitive equipment came out, the two of them also lowered their guard. Chen Kai claimed that he was knocked unconscious, and when he woke up, his clothes and belongings were all gone. As for the small village in the mountain col, he did pass by and saw it.

So many corpses were so frightening that he fled here. Basically, he agreed with the truth. As for why he fell there, he still didn't understand it, so he had to make up one.

The misunderstanding was resolved, and Chen Kai found out that the two brothers, whose surname was Lin, the elder brother Dezhong, and the younger brother Dexiao, were hunters in the mountains. It was only after seeing the tragic situation in the small village that they followed his traces to find the hunters in the mountains and forests.

A temporary residence. But to his surprise, these two people were not from that small village, but their uncle lived there. They also followed their mother's orders this time and hunted more wild animals.

They sent it to their uncle, only to witness such a tragedy.

"What kind of extremely vicious person can do such a heartless thing and not be afraid of retribution?"

Chen Kai looked distressed, 70% of it was from the bottom of his heart, but 30% of it was because he wanted to use this topic to further deceive them.

Sure enough, when Chen Kai just raised this topic, Lin Dexiao looked furious: "The corpses in the village are all men's, and the women must have been taken away. Eighty percent of them were done by thieves from Huanggang and Nanyang."

, otherwise who would know such a remote place."

The younger brother punched the wall, but the older brother shook his head and explained: "I'm afraid not, those thieves are thieves after all, and they don't want their heads to be recorded for merit. In my opinion, nine out of ten of them are Che Ren

Chong that guy. Didn’t the Tatars say that you should keep your head but not your hair, and keep your hair but not your head? That guy was originally a red-headed thief. I heard that he made the city look like a den of thieves. Killing good people and taking credit for their merits is absolutely unacceptable.

It can be done.”

Chen Kai couldn't remember who the suspected target Che Renzhong was, but after hearing this, if he didn't understand his situation, wouldn't his hobby of history have been a waste of time?

Keep your head but not your hair, keep your hair but not your hair!

At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, no wonder there was such a thing as "mandarin", no wonder Mandarin was considered "the dialect of northerners", and no wonder there is still such a saying as "the Yankees who surrendered the Tartars" in this world, just this sentence

The infamous words can say it all, the rest is nothing but details.

Chen Kai didn't have the time to think about the details. The huge amount of information directly overwhelmed Chen Kai, and the subsequent conversation between the Lin brothers became deaf to them. The only thing left in his mind was "I traveled through time, what the hell?"

"The troubled times in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties". In addition, thoughts such as "What should parents do" and "How to go back" are also constantly impacting his thinking nerves.

However, just like he hadn't figured out "what the hell is going on" for most of the day, he couldn't find an answer to these questions, especially now that he was dressed like a primitive man and had the possibility of dying of cold and starvation.

On the contrary, it is larger.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, are you okay?"

Concerned eyes came, Chen Kai shook his head with a wry smile, and then said to Lin Dezhong: "Thank you, Brother Lin, for caring. I, um, after I woke up, I can't remember many things. I was in a trance just now. It's okay.

.”

"That's good."

As he spoke, the skin of the bamboo tube thrown into the fire was scorched. Lin Dezhong picked it out, made a hole with a hatchet, and knocked it slightly, as if the lid was lifted, and a fragrant bamboo tube rice was presented.

In front of their eyes, Lin Dezhong opened the first bamboo tube, opened another, placed two portions of bamboo tube rice in front of Chen Kai and his brother, and sat there waiting for the skin of the other bamboo tube to burn.

The fragrant bamboo tube rice aroused Chen Kai's hunger, but after such a big thing happened, his mind was already occupied, but he was not like Lin Dexiao, who directly poked the branches and picked up the bamboo tube to eat, which was even less...

The method was so vicious, as if the bamboo tube rice was the enemy of the uncle, and he wished he could eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.

"Brother Chen, does it not suit your taste?"

"No, it tastes very good. It's just that something happened in the picture below, which makes me a little uneasy."

Having said this, Chen Kai sighed sincerely, then stood up and followed the way in the TV series, bowing with his hands.

"I was on my way down to Shanxi to visit friends, Si Tongsheng and Chen Kai. I encountered bandits on the way and ended up in trouble. I owe you the kindness of a wise man who rescued me and gave me food. I will express my gratitude to you. If I get rich in the future, I will repay you generously."

Those who violate this oath will be punished by heaven and earth!"

He bowed down and stood up again. Lin Dexiao's eyes and mouth were wide open, and grains of coarse rice fell from his mouth. Even his brother was not much better, with the same look of disbelief.

The hatchet used to pick up the burnt bamboo tube is always roasted together with the bamboo tube in the fire.

Until a moment later, with a scream, Lin Dezhong dropped the hatchet in a hurry, and quickly used firewood to pick out the hot hatchet and the bamboo tube rice that was about to burst. Then he stood up and hurriedly returned

He gave Chen Kai a gift.

"Brother Chen, ah, no, Mr. Chen turns out to be a scholar, and he was really offended just now."

"I am a young man who has enlightened himself and read the books of saints, but he failed to pass the examination. I really have lost the face of my late father and family teacher. You two have been kind to me first. If you have offended me, please don't mention it again. There is no such thing here.

Outsiders, just treat each other as brothers, too much red tape is useless."

"How do you deserve this? How do you deserve this?"

Lin Dezhong's words were incoherent, and Lin Dexiao's mouthful of rice from the bamboo tube spurted out. He quickly covered his mouth and swallowed it, but his eyes were still full of disbelief, but there was more reverence and fear in Chen Kai's eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Kai picked a burning firewood, knocked out the fire, and started writing on the ground one stroke at a time.

"Well, these are the three characters Lin Dexiao."

After that, Chen Kai wrote Lin Dezhong's name again: "The name of Xian Bozhong is only missing one word, which is the first two words of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness mentioned by the saint. It is very good to get a name, the more troubled times like this.

, we must follow the teachings of the saints and emphasize loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, so that it is possible to restore great order in the world."

As soon as the words were finished and the words were written, the Lin brothers looked at the names on the ground and couldn't help but swallow their saliva. They looked at Chen Kai with no doubts in their eyes.

Next, Lin Dezhong quickly picked a pheasant from the prey and started to pack it up, saying that he wanted to give Chen Kai a taste of the game in the mountains and forests. His younger brother even helped his elder brother while chatting with Chen Kai.

When I got up, I saw that there were no chopsticks in Chen Kai's bamboo tube before eating. I immediately found a branch and wiped it back and forth on my clothes. Until I was sure it was clean, I pushed out the two halves and handed it to Chen Kai with both hands.

before.

"Thanks."
